its very nice of all you people.. thanks for the detailed discussions.. will point to my doubts later..

nice discovery prolu.. the site has amazing photos revealing the beauty of microworld.. rated 5*

isnt these statements controversial? or is it meant that the protiens produced could replace an already existing phenotypic character? or is it meant that the altered gene sequence in the embryo of drosophila could make the alterations? can u plz clarify my doubt..

and prolu2007, can u explain this with an example which could make us it understand easily..

thanks for the responses of prolu2007 and pyrotex.. its been in very detail,obviously..

well the following is from encarta.msn.com about epistasis : suppression of a characteristic determined by a gene:- the nonappearance of a characteristic determined by one gene because it has been suppressed or masked by the activity of another gene

it would be very nice if prolu2007 explains about epistasis..

and prolu2007, what are you doing? a student or a lecturer or some other worker? nice to have your replies......

thank you tonnnnnnnnnes!!!!!!!

ok..it was a new info to me.. thnx for ur efforts.. is this a case of epistasis and something like that? Genetics is so intersting isnt it?

thank you all dudes for the warm welcome...... i hope i can study a looooooooooooooooooooooooooot from here......

oh! thank you very much sir for this information.... can u plz tell this in more depth.. i mean in which gene does this triat lie? i mean is it in allosomic chromosomes or in sex chromosomes? have scientists deviced any name for the gene which carry this characters?

Hi. im a new member of this community. i have a doubt in the subject that human phenotypic characers and its controlled genes.. ive observed tht many has attached earlobe whereas some has free.. and some can roll their tongue in "u" direction, whereas others cant.. and, some can bend their thumbs backward, while most of the people cant....... wht is all behind these? my teacher said me that these are the result of the play of genes.. but it isnt clear to me.... ive also searche the net but couldnt gather any more.. can any one of youu tell me the mechanisms involved in these? which genes on which chromosomes are controlling these? which stasis is shown by them? are the sex-linked? can u plz explain all these phenomena....
